Re: Receiving create events for self with synchronous create

Hi Todd,
 Sorry for my late response. I had marked this email to respond but couldn't 
find the time :). Did you figure this out? It mostly looks like that as soon as 
you set a watch on /follower, some other node instantly creates another child 
of  /follower? Could that be the case?

Thanks

1. Create our follower node so that other nodes know we exist at path 
/com/spidertracks/aviator/cluster/follower/10.0.1.1  where the last node is 
an ephemeral node with the internal IP address of the node.  These are lines 67 
through 72.
2. Signal to the clusterManager that the cluster has changed (line 79).  
Ultimately the clusterManager will perform a barrier for partitioning data ( a 
separate watcher)
3. Register a watcher to receive all future events on the follower path 
/com/spidertracks/aviator/cluster/follower/ line 81.


Then we have the following characteristics in the watcher

1. If a node has been added or deleted from the children of 
/com/spidertracks/aviator/cluster/follower then continue.  Otherwise, ignore 
the event.  Lines 33 through 44
2. If this was an event we should process our cluster has changed, signal to 
the CusterManager that a node has either been added or removed. line 51.


I'm trying to encapsulate the detection of additions and deletions of child 
nodes within this Watcher.  All other events that occur due to a node being 
added or deleted should be handled externally by the clustermanager.

Thanks,
Todd

Hi all,
   I'm running into a strange issue I could use a hand with.   I've

 implementing a follower queue with ephemeral nodes. I have an interface
 IClusterManager which simply has the api clusterChanged.  I don't care
 if nodes are added or deleted, I always want to fire this event.  I have
 the following basic algorithm.


 init

 Create a path with /follower/+mynode name

 fire the clusterChangedEvent

 Watch set the event watcher on the path /follower.


 watch:

 reset the watch on /follower

 if event is not a NodeDeleted or NodeCreated, ignore

 fire the clustermanager event


 this seems pretty straightforward.  Here is what I'm expecting


 1. Create my node path
 2. fire the clusterChanged event
 3. Set watch on /follower
 4. Receive watch events for changes from any other nodes.

 What's actually happening

 1. Create my node path
 2. fire the clusterChanged event
 3. Set Watch on /follower
 4. Receive watch event for node created in step 1
 5. Receive future watch events for changes from any other nodes.


 Here is my code.  Since I set the watch after I create the node, I'm not
 expecting to receive the event for it.  Am I doing something incorrectly
 in creating my watch?  Here is my code.

Re: Receiving create events for self with synchronous create

2010-08-30 Thread Patrick Hunt
On line 64 are you ensuring that the ZooKeeper session is active before
executing that sequence?

zookeeper = new ZooKeeper(...) is async - it returns before you're actually
connected to the server (you get notified of this in your watcher). If you
execute this sequence quickly enough your zk.create operation is queued
until the zookeeper session is actually established.
